Schneider assumes role of public policy supervisor at Wolt
In a significant move towards expanding its operations in the German market, Finnish tech company Wolt has appointed Sina Schneider as the Public Policy Manager for Germany. The appointment, effective immediately, is seen as a strategic hire to support the company's growth in the region.
Sina Schneider, who previously worked as a Senior Consultant at von Beust & Coll. Consulting Firm, will now be responsible for driving political work in Germany for Wolt. Her expertise in consulting is expected to contribute significantly to Wolt's strategic decisions in the German market.
Schneider will be working closely with Laurin Sepoetro, Head of Public Policy, Markets at Wolt. This collaboration is expected to strengthen Wolt's presence in the German political landscape.
Wolt's current political agenda in Germany primarily focuses on sustainability, inclusion, and innovation in food systems and urban logistics. The company is committed to reducing environmental impact, promoting equitable food access, and advancing green urban delivery solutions. To achieve these goals, Wolt has formed strategic partnerships with organisations like EIT Food and the European Federation of Food Banks to tackle food waste, food insecurity, and sustainable packaging. Additionally, the company is collaborating with EIT Urban Mobility on zero-emission delivery ecosystems to cut pollution and traffic congestion across European cities.
As Public Policy Manager, Schneider's responsibilities likely involve shaping and advocating for policies that align Wolt's business with sustainable practices, regulatory compliance, and social impact goals, especially within Germany’s regulatory and political environment. This would include navigating food policy reforms, sustainability regulations, and urban mobility initiatives consistent with Wolt’s strategic collaborations and commitments to sustainability and inclusiveness.
However, specific details on Schneider's agenda or projects are not publicly documented at this time. As she settles into her new role, we can expect to see her making a significant impact on Wolt's operations in Germany.
